150 years ago a ship called the 'Delaware' sank just off the Isles of Scilly, while en-route to Calcutta from Liverpool. Nearly 50 people died, but incredibly there were survivors. Now organisers of a special memorial want to try and trace their descendants on Merseyside. Issy Tibbs is one of the people behind the project, she spoke to Âé¶¹Éç Radio Merseyside Breakfast.
